Hi all .

Ive just recently bought a 1992 vx landcruiser LTD Bloody good trucks ,sold my v8 comy had enough of that .

I'm going to put new m/t tyres on and safari snorkel and probley a lift kit later on in the year .

I'm just wanting some advice on tyres, as im new too 4wd , at the moment it has got pirelli scorpions A/t .275/70 r16.
im just going to stay with the 16" rims . and thinking bout , BF Goodrich Mud-Terrain T/A 285/75R16 or
Kumho 834 MT 285/75R16 , Any suggestions would be great?????

cheers matt

i,m not a fan of BFG seen to many 4wd trun to shit with then go kumho or good year ,that me

yup, stick to the 285/75 R16.

I put some 315/75 R16 tyres on a mates VX and he took them off after a couple of months. They were too big and he found that it was chewing up the gas.

Another VX I know of runs 305/70 R16 BFG All Terrains and he has no complaints.

I run 33/12.5 R15 mud tyres on mine and it still goes like a rocket.

Congrats on the purchase. Almost every VX owner I know says they will never look back once owning a VX.

If you can keep them around the 33"/34" size then I think you will be doing allright.

but theres bound to be some on here that run bigger and have no probs with them.

EACH TO THIER OWN

hey ,
im gona order thoses tyres this week off 4wdbits , and il gona go with ,Goodyear Wrangler MT/R 315/75R16
